Now Westbrook has officially chosen to execute the US$47.1 million contract for the new season, and Nunn has also announced the execution of the 5.5 million contract. Now there is only US$25.5 million in operable salary space left for the Lakers . It may be difficult for the team to attract big-name stars at such a price. Monk was previously estimated to have an annual salary of no less than US$10 million in his new contract, but now after some ideological struggle, he has chosen to cut his salary and stay. .
Today Monk officially stated that he will accept the Lakers' one-year mini-middle-class contract of US$630. The purpose of this is to give the team more space to attract other players to join and create some salary space for the team. Monk's move also made many Lakers fans feel very happy. After all, not everyone has the courage to give up so much money. You must know that his salary this season is only $1.6 million.
Monk talked about his salary cut in an interview. He said, "There is nothing to say. I just feel very happy to stay at Los Angeles Lakers . I feel that this city is suitable for me. I have the whole world here." The best fans, everyone is very happy to be together. The Lakers are also a team with a long history. I am very happy to continue playing with them. The most important thing is to continue to assist James to help him relieve some pressure.”
Now. After Monk confirmed that he will stay, the Lakers have a good attacker on the outside. The next thing that needs to be solved is the problem of the inside center. It is not easy to say whether they will keep Howard, and the power forward position is also difficult to say. We need to find a suitable substitute for thick eyebrow . In short, the Lakers really have no shortage of people on the back line. The center and power forward are in urgent need of fresh blood. In the new season, thick eyebrow must reduce the time to play center to ensure that he of health.
